Chapter 164: Jia Concubine's Birthday Banquet (2)
"Next, then you!"
Now that he had the right to decide, Ye Lingxi did not twist or shirk at all, and generously pointed directly at Concubine Xuan.
It seems that Ye Lingxi has no scheming, and very casually assigned Concubine Xuan to perform. But in fact, Ye Lingxi deliberately arranged Xuan Concubine so casually. The tone was as if he was choosing a girl in a kiln.
Concubine Xuan once used to use force against Ye Lingxi in the toilet, Ye Lingxi remembered it very clearly, this incident did not appear in the dream, Ye Lingxi can be sure, that is the truth.
Yi Guiren and Xuan Concubine, these two people are embarrassed, Ye Lingxi will definitely have revenge!
The thoughtful Concubine Xuan really heard the contempt in Ye Lingxi's tone, most of the people present were human spirits, and naturally many people also heard it. If you can't hear it, I'm afraid there are only people like Jia Concubine who are extremely upright in their minds......
Concubine Xuan's face instantly became very ugly, and a face that was originally gorgeous turned into a pig's liver color because of shame and indignation.
"Huh? Why doesn't Concubine Xuan perform yet? Could it be that Hongu's words don't work? ”
Facing Concubine Xuan, who had not moved, Ye Lingxi scolded coldly, and her aggressive appearance did not give Concubine Xuan any face.
"The concubine doesn't dare, it's just that the queen mother, Jia Concubine is tonight's birthday star, and the concubine privately thinks that she should give the opportunity to Jia Concubine first."
Concubine Xuan couldn't refuse Ye Lingxi head-on, so she simply pushed Concubine Jia out to block the gun.
Jia Concubine's best thing is dancing, but now that her legs have just improved a little, she has to be supported when she walks, how can she dance?!
In addition to dancing, Jia Concubine also has several talents, nothing more than playing the piano, chanting poetry, and painting, which are all essential talents for official women, but those items are not Jia Concubine's strengths.
Therefore, Concubine Xuan suddenly pointed the finger at Jia Concubine, which made Jia Concubine feel a little flustered. Why is it her turn so soon, she hasn't thought about what to perform yet!
Just when Jia Concubine was about to perform the piano skills, Ye Lingxi opened her mouth first, which can be regarded as relieving Jia Concubine.
"This palace doesn't want you to think privately, this palace only needs this palace to think!"
The loud words echoed in the hall, and everyone present, except for Yu Wenyin, was shocked by Ye Lingxi's momentum.
This queen looks so easy-going on weekdays, but I didn't expect that it would be even more terrifying than the emperor!
Concubine Xuan was even more frightened and knelt down directly, completely ignoring the matter of losing face in front of everyone, at the moment, it was important to save her life!
"The queen is angry, the concubine is not disobedient to the queen, but today's atmosphere is too relaxed, the concubine was a little forgetful for a while, negligent, begging the queen to punish."
It turns out that Concubine Xuan's sophistry is probably innate...... Even in the face of Ye Lingxi's imperial pressure, Concubine Xuan still did not forget to make excuses for herself.
At the same time, he also criticized Ye Lingxi for being angry because of a trivial matter under the beautiful scenery of today's beautiful day, which disturbed everyone's interest.
Sure enough, after Concubine Jia heard Concubine Xuan's words, her heart, which had changed her impression of Ye Lingxi a little because Ye Lingxi helped her out of the siege, suddenly turned into resentment.
How could Ye Lingxi not hear the irony in Concubine Xuan's words, but she was not afraid!
"Since the atmosphere is so harmonious today, why don't you hurry up and perform a show to celebrate Jia Concubine's birthday?!"
After listening to Ye Lingxi's words, Jia Concubine suddenly transferred her dissatisfaction with Ye Lingxi to Xuan Concubine, and when she looked at Xuan Concubine's eyes, she suddenly became full of doubts.
Oh, yes...... Why didn't Concubine Xuan hurry up and perform the show?!
At this time, Concubine Xuan had no reason to shirk, so she had to walk to the center of the hall with small steps, salute, and start performing.
Speaking of which, the result was that Ye Lingxi ordered Concubine Xuan to perform a show, and Concubine Xuan's breath was blocked in her chest, and she couldn't send her hair, so she could only swallow it back.
The program performed by Xuan Concubine is painting during the dance, which is Xuan Concubine's stunt, and no one else in the palace can do it except Xuan Concubine.
I saw Concubine Xuan's sleeve robe flicked and danced to the music, and with her dance steps, the paintbrush in her hand left a little ink on the drawing paper standing up around her.
Ye Lingxi watched Concubine Xuan's performance with great interest, as if she was really curious about how Concubine Xuan painted during the dance.
In fact, Ye Lingxi is completely in the mood of performing for free, not watching in vain, although Concubine Xuan's performance is wonderful and fresh, but Ye Lingxi does not feel strange at all.
Isn't this the knowledge of painting......
This concubine is really like a painting, a green tea!
When the dance of Xuan Concubine ended, wonderful paintings were also presented on the drawing paper, and everyone present applauded, except for Yu Wenyin and Ye Lingxi.
But even though she has been praised by so many people, the only thing Concubine Xuan cares about is Yu Wenyin......
The man in the high position, with a noble status and a beautiful appearance, had already lived deeply in the heart of Concubine Xuan.
Obviously, Yu Wenyin is going to break Concubine Xuan's heart again......
Because, Yu Wenyin observed that Ye Lingxi did not show joy after watching Concubine Xuan's performance, but was very impatient, obviously not liking Concubine Xuan's performance.
For Yu Wenyin, he can't make a smile from a beauty, and Concubine Xuan's performance is garbage.
So, Concubine Xuan, who was silently waiting in the center of the hall to receive the emperor's commendation, only received an impatient wave of Yu Wenyin's hand, and had no choice but to retreat to her seat in a gloomy manner.
Concubine Xuan is unwilling...... Her performance is so wonderful, why can't she be favored by the emperor......
Next, Ye Lingxi ordered another noble person with a very low sense of presence to perform.
Because Ye Lingxi had been canceling the concubines' invitation to the queen, she couldn't even call the specific name of the nobleman, so she could only point with her finger.
However, even if it is just a finger, Ye Lingxi is also a thoughtful finger, which is not at all as casual as when he just selected Concubine Xuan to perform.
The nobleman was flattered to get the opportunity to perform in front of the holy face, and kowtowed again and again to thank the queen mother Hongen.
That nobleman's talent is really average, but he played a song that is not too brilliant, and it is completely at an average level.
However, Ye Lingxi seemed to know Concubine Xuan's unwillingness, and even praised her after the nobleman's performance.
"What's your name?"
"Back to the queen's mother, the concubine Qi Duo, now she is a noble Qi person."
"Well, you put on a great show!"
Subsequently, Ye Lingxi turned to Yu Wenyin.
"Husband, noble Qi plays the piano so well, he should be rewarded."
Yu Wenyin was currying favor with Ye Lingxi in various ways, and Ye Lingxi made such a simple request, and Yu Wenyin naturally met it immediately.
"Good! Since the queen likes the performance of the Qi nobles, she will reward the Qi nobles with one hundred taels of silver and two pairs of jade bracelets. ”
When Yu Wenyin finished saying this, Ye Lingxi still looked at Yu Wenyin expectantly, and looked at Yu Wenyin without knowing why.
"Huh? What does the queen think? ”
Qi Guiren knelt on the ground and secretly slandered, she didn't know what Ye Lingxi meant, and thought that Ye Lingxi was playing tricks on her, but in fact, she didn't want the emperor to reward her.
However, Ye Lingxi's next words made Qi Guiren's heart beat faster.
"Just promote the noble Qi to be the concubine of Qi!"
Not only the noble Qi who was the party, but everyone present was shocked.
Where is it so easy for nobles to be promoted...... Unless she is pregnant with the emperor's heir, or her mother's family has made great contributions to the court, otherwise, it is difficult for a noble person to be promoted to a concubine.
However, Qi Guiren can be promoted to a concubine in one step just by playing such a not very brilliant song? !
And even more magical things are still to come......
"Accurate!"
Yu Wenyin waved his hand and directly agreed to Ye Lingxi's proposal.
Concubine Xuan's whole heart is about to be blown up! Qi Concubine's maiden family has no power in the court, and Qi Concubine's success in the draft is completely shit luck. Now that she can be on an equal footing with her, where is there heavenly reason, where are the royal rules?!
Besides, what is that thing that Qi Concubine is performing?! Pull any woman on the street, and you can pop up the effect of Qi Concubine! Where?!
However, before Concubine Xuan could raise an objection, Ye Lingxi continued to speak. At this time, Concubine Xuan was so angry that she couldn't even sit still.
"And the birthday star...... Husband, the birthday star hasn't gotten a birthday gift yet, Jia Concubine's maiden family has served the country a lot, don't live up to today's beautiful scenery, just promote Jia Concubine to Jia Concubine! ”
The prestige of the General's Mansion is indeed very high, and when Concubine Jia was positioning, she should have directly positioned Concubine Jia. However, Xiao Yumo discussed with Yu Wenyin in private, don't give Jia Concubine such a high position first, Xiao Yumo is worried that with Jia Concubine's temperament, she will be "shot out of the head".
For Yu Wenyin, in fact, Concubine Jia, Concubine Qi, Concubine Qi, and Concubine Xuan, they are all similar, in short, they are all objects placed in the harem, which one is placed higher, which one is lower, it's not bad......
Since Ye Lingxi even put forward the excuse of Liangchen Meijing, and just wanted to promote Jia Concubine, then Yuwenyin naturally relied on Ye Lingxi for everything.
"That's right."
Concubine Jia never expected that it was a great blessing that she could have a banquet in the palace to celebrate her birthday, she didn't do anything, and she could even drop such a big gift package from the sky!
For a while, Concubine Jia forgot to even thank her, she just looked at Ye Lingxi in a daze, and couldn't believe that Ye Lingxi would ask for such an honor for her.
In fact, Ye Lingxi was completely looking at Xiao Yumo's face, so he would bring Concubine Jia along the way while wooing Concubine Qi.
Ye Lingxi didn't expect Concubine Jia to help her with anything, just begged Concubine Jia not to cause any more trouble to her!
As for that Qi Concubine, at first glance, she is not a big-chested person, she should only be hindered by the power of her mother's family, so she will drown among the women of the harem, and she will have no future.
Ye Lingxi is such a gang, I believe that Concubine Qi will be grateful to Dade, and from now on, Ye Lingxi can be regarded as having a help. Although you can't believe it all, it is better to have one more person who is grateful to you than one more enemy......
